The Sale-A-Bration is already in it’s 3rd week and it is a real party! The products in de Sale-A-Bration folder are really awesome and one of my favorites is the Sweet Soirée Memories & More card pack that fits beautifully with the Sweet Soirée product suite.

Memories & More isn’t just great to use for memory keeping, but it’s also very easy and quick to make cards with them and that’s exactly what I did for the Spotlight project of today.

If you’re not yet familiar with Memories & More, this is a short explanation… A quick and easy way to keep your memories. You fill so-called pocket pages with your pictures, fun theme cards of the Memories & More collections and you write down your memories. You can add some embellishments to spice things up if that would be necessary at all 🙂

It doesn’t stop with filling pocket pages, you can use the cards to make scrap lay-outs and easy, quick cards.

The card below is a quick make. I took one of the large cards from the card pack and cut it to 9,5 x 14 cm. In addition, I cut two strips of Champagne foil cardstock of 1 x 14 cm.

I first adhered these strips to the card and then added the ‘Hello’ card with dimensionals, I did first tie some Flirty Flamingo Baker’s twine around it. The sentiment comes from the Dutch version of the Sweet Soirée stamp set and is heat embossed in white on Basic Black cardstock. Mini-dimensionals were used to add it to the card.

In the new spring/summer catalog (pg. 14) are some cute mini embroidery hoops and corresponding scallop circle punches 1 1/8″ and 1 3/8″. As an embroidery fan I was immediately smitten.

The base of the card consists of two small Memories & More cards from the Sweet Soirée card pack and the sentiment comes once again from the Dutch version of the Sweet Soirée stamp set. It’s stamped with Basic Gray and punched with the 1 1/8″ scallop circle punch. I then adhered it to a scallop circle (1 3/8″) of Champagne foil and then glued it on the card. The mini embroidery hoop is glued (liquid glue) over the sentiment on the card.
